Corazón de Maguey

Coyoacán & San Ángel


Adorned with old glass jugs used for transporting booze, this attractive restaurant does traditional Mexican fare that's typically prepared in mezcal-producing regions, such as stuffed chile ancho peppers from Queretaro, Oaxacan tlayudas (large folded tortillas) and beef tongue in red mole, hailing from Puebla. It's also a prime spot to sample some of Mexico's finest mezcals.

Try traditional insect dishes during the 'Temporada de los Bichos' from early May to early June.
